California hard rock stalwarts Buckcherry are set to ignite stages across the United States with a headlining tour in Fall 2025, joined by legendary Hanoi Rocks vocalist Michael Monroe for most dates. The tour, announced on July 9, 2025, promises a high-octane celebration of rock ‘n’ roll, blending Buckcherry’s gritty anthems with Monroe’s glam-punk energy. Opening all shows is Drew Cagle and The Reputation, a rising act dubbed one of Rolling Stone’s “10 Bands to Watch in 2025.”
The tour kicks off with a Buckcherry-only warm-up show on September 20, 2025, at The Coach House in San Juan Capistrano, California. Michael Monroe joins the lineup the following night for a two-date stand at the iconic Whisky A Go Go in Los Angeles on September 21 and 22. The joint tour continues through October 25 in Ringle, Wisconsin, at the Q & Z Expo Center, followed by nine additional Buckcherry-only headline performances, wrapping up on November 7 in Tucson, Arizona, at Encore.

Fans can expect a raw, unfiltered rock experience, with Buckcherry delivering hits like “Lit Up,” “Crazy Bitch,” and “Sorry,” alongside tracks from their eleventh studio album, Roar Like Thunder, released on June 13, 2025. Michael Monroe, a glam-rock icon known for his electrifying performances with Hanoi Rocks and his solo career, will bring his high-energy stage presence, featuring classics and newer material. VIP meet-and-greet packages are available for all shows, offering fans a chance to connect with the bands.
Coinciding with the tour announcement, Buckcherry dropped the music video for their latest single, “Let It Burn,” from Roar Like Thunder (watch below). Directed by Tom Flynn, the video was filmed during two upstate New York shows on their spring 2025 tour with Steel Panther, capturing the band’s raw live energy. Frontman Josh Todd described the track as a reflection of the band’s unrelenting passion, saying, “It’s about that fire in us that keeps pushing forward, no matter what.” The album, produced by Marti Frederiksen in Nashville’s Sienna Studios, marks another chapter in Buckcherry’s commitment to delivering no-filler, high-quality rock records.
Todd emphasized the band’s creative process in a recent interview with TotalRock: “I wanna be as great as I can be, and as far as Buckcherry is concerned… I’m very passionate about this band to this day, and I really care about putting out a quality record.” He noted that their collaboration with Frederiksen, a longtime producer who’s worked with Aerosmith and Def Leppard, feels like working with a “sixth bandmember” who elevates their sound while preserving their raw edge.
